lucky number 5
first date
i stumbled
i kidded
i was honest
indulged in my perfume
hair tied high
i showed you my place
secret hideaway
i wanted to surprise you
inspire you
draw your eyes to me
locked
you were careless
i couldn’t walk a step without looking down
you could dive
i could watch
we watched the train go by
you asked to hold my hand
as we danced in the water
splashing one another
i smiled
i felt free
you grabbed me
held me tight
could it be this
second date
11 am
morning coffee
warm pancakes
hand across the table
old couple 2 booths
down
told me about your father
our childhoods collide
i was too distracted
that i almost forgot to tip
i rested my head on your lap
listening to the rain
you played with my hair
i fell asleep
i met your family
the potential of us was there
i saw it that time
i hope you did too
we kissed
a lot
well into the night
third date
i held your hand
as a crossed the street
you flashing your camera at me
no, no, no
as i ran away
fine then take one with me
an hour late home
its fine you are worth it
whispered in my ear
pinned against your car
i thought i was lucky
you wanted me
foggy mirrors
on the way home
fourth date
more kisses
more hugs
xo, xo
lips locked together
fifth date
come over
cuddles had to be the cure
head against your chest
warm
i held onto you as you left
5 more minutes
please stay
wrapped in your jacket
i held up against me
sweet taste
5 more minutes
please stay
you left
5 dates
till you were gone
i dont want to forget any of it
maybe
besides your name
